introduction: HAE is an autosomal dominant disease of deficient functional C1 inhibitor (nf-C1 inH) manifested by attacks of<br />
angioedema commonly involving the gastrointestinal lining, extremities, face, larynx, and genitalia. symptoms of HAE typically begin<br />
in childhood and worsen around puberty. stanozolol is FDA approved for pediatric prophylaxis but has undesirable AEs, such as<br />
masculinization, premature puberty, and premature epiphyseal plate closure. this subset analysis evaluates the use of nf-C1 inH for<br />
routine prophylaxis in pediatric subjects with HAE
